I decide to make some halloween spinning cards. I used papertrey cardstock and used my cricut machine to create the ghost and spider (doodlecharm and paper doll dress up). Halloween paper was from Michaels Recollection Collection.

I decide to do some cards for the World Cardmaking Day that took place on Saturday October 3, 2009. The idea came from the Scrapbooking and Cardmaking Magazine Blog to make a card for every month. Imade January-Thank you, February-Valentines Day, March-Girl birthday, April-Thinking of U, May-Mothers Day. I hardly make cards, so this is my first try on making cards and following a sketch. For a first timer it seemed forever in completing a card but I had fun making them and will continue to complete the rest of the months.

I also used my cricut machine and Design Studio to do Tree, Letters, Borders, Tags, and the cardstock paper I used Papertrey,Recollections(from M's), Joanns white paper. The pattern papers were from DCVW The Glitter Stack,K&Co Seasonal. I'm trying to use all of my scrap paper. Don't forget to click on each picture for a close up.

Thank you Bug Junkie for posting a great tutorial video in How to create a shape book using Design Studio. I had my DS for about 7 months and never even tried to create something but watching the video it made so easy, so I decide to go ahead and create a Halloween shape book. I used Recollections Halloween paper and K &Company Seasonal Paper. Each Die cut I glitter and emboss. Added ribbon and used my bind it all. The cartridges I used are paper doll dress up and george.

I finally figured out how to create lettering with vinyl. I always wanted to make my daughter's name and pasted it on their doors. I thought it was going to be hard but it's easy. The cartridges are guitar: Hannah Montana, Crown and Letters are from Alphalicious.
